MORVILLE STREET METHODIST CHAPEL SUNDAY SCHOOL ANNIVERSARY PARADE, 1948 Do you know anyone in these photographs?
Taken outside the Chapel looking down Morville Street towards Ledsam Street. You can see Vernon's the builder in the top right hand corner. The man standing by the car is Mr. Busby, the choirmaster and organist, Rita Smith is the girl with the dark hair and dark coat partially covered by Mr. Busby. She would have been about 12 years old. Look at the little boy in the centre in his battledress tunic, he is a smasher
This was taken on Ladywood Road at the corner of Rawlin Street, note the tram lines and how the little girls are holding hands and lined up in three's with the boys following behind.
This is at the bottom of Ruston Street, just turning the corner into Morville Street. Look at all the proud mothers in their pinnies standing outside Dicky Till's outdoor. You can just see Rita Smith behind the little girl in the pleated dress, the older girl in the foreground, wearing the dark jacket is Rita's sister, Jean.
